There was another thread exactly like this a month ago. The answer is no. There is circuitry and scripts to stop charging.

Thats my Plan!
I've heard this too. My ex girlfriend seems to think that it actually causes the battery to swell and inflate, causing it's eventual demise.

This was the case with older batteries and much older phones all modern phones protect against this. I still unplug right away out of habit though.
As a note:
When the phone charges to full and your little blue light comes on, the phone enters a state of constant discharge and recharge. Meaning that if you leave it plugged in once fully charged, when you finally take it off the charge actually may be anywhere between 95-100%.

ya on my stock battery i used to see it at 92% some times when i would unplug so i had to replug it in and re charge a bit at one time when it got full it would stop charging completely and id wake up with a empty battery thanks god that was fixed. and i just got a much bigger battery

I picked up a cheap wallcharger and spare battery. Charges to 100% and stops. It's beautiful.

This is the second time I've posted about this, hopefully someone has a solution. My battery displays that its charging 24/7. Not only is it annoying, but I feel like its depleting my battery life a great deal. I have tried wiping everything and installing different roms but the battery issue persists. If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated.

I'd say replace the battery. Also, on another thread like this one, someone said they fixed it by powering off (?), plugging in the charger (making sure it's charging), taking the battery out, let it sit there for an arbitrary amount of time (15 minutes - 2 hours), and then putting the battery back in, rebooting. See if that helps?

You think the battery is causing my issue? I'll see if I can get a replacement. I tried your other recommendation. When I pull out the battery my phone immediately shuts off though

the recommendation didnt say that the phone should stay on... its probably gonna work anyways

Well the only way to make sure its charging is to have the battery in. Otherwise its just plugged in doing nothing
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
that is probably correct, too. I just said the recommendation didnt state the phone should stay on, so you could probably unplug it while the battery isnt in
on the other hand a new battery is 20$ and the extended one 30$
There is nothing wrong with the battery. You need to change the USB port, see http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=23789 AND comment there if you have this issue. This is a serious hardware flaw that Samsung really should look into.
I had this problem also untill I changed the USB charging board.

Thanks a lot for that info! I thought it was just an issue with a few devices. I had no idea how widespread it was

Quick question, guys.
Will leaving the One X plugged in all night ruin the life of the battery? First thing I do when I get home is plug the thing in (it usually is at <20% charge), and then only take it out in the morning (8, maybe 10 hours after). I am especially concerned as the phone's battery is built in, and replacing it will be a pain.
Thanks for taking time to leave your thoughts.

It won't ruin the battery. However leaving it in there for days would.

Cheers for the quick reply. Yeah, I imagine that would ruin the battery. I've a habit of listening to Stitcher or whatnot 'til I fall asleep. Guess that isn't much of a problem now. Thanks!
Your welcome
works the same way if it's in a dock so it's pretty safe to leave it there overnight.
Previous HTC phones I have had do something like this:
Charge to 100%.
Go off charger, until battery reaches ~95%.
Charge back to 100%.
It's a cycle that is repeated while your phone is on the charger, to prevent it from over charging. This is also why sometimes you'll take the phone off the charger when the green light is on and it'll be down to 92% after two minutes.

Good tips, guys. Thanks for the help.
Good advice in this thread
One thing that has not been mentioned is what about leaving it plugged in overnight with the screen on, kinda like a desk clock. Would that cause problems?

Help please.
My Epic 4G Touch suddenly said my battery went from 94% last night to 0%
I've tested and wall charged all my batteries, even re-flashed my ROM and still get the same reading on the phone.
Plugged in, it works, but if I unplug it, it shuts down immediately.
I have work deadlines to meet and I'm a little frazzled. Am I screwed??
Thank you for any and all advice!
More information on your current rom setup might be helpful.

Why does my battery go dramatically down after a reboot? It doesn't happen every reboot, but when it does, it goes down 5-10%..
I usually charge every night and when I wake up and unplug it. :/ help
Please give us some more information. Like is your phone rooted?
Which ROM/software are you running?
How long has this been happening?

Oh sorry wow forgot that.
I'm running cyanogenmod stock cm10 12/14 kernels. I don't remember exactly when it first happened but it'd been happening for about a month or so. There was no physical damage to the phone or battery. Also, I just noticed this, sometimes my battery goes down then back up without charge...
Note:in the screen shot I know i charged it a little bit but look at where it'd red and a little after the charging point at the yellow.

It sounds like a bug you got or you downloaded an app that went bad. Try a reflash of the ROM or delete all the apps and see which app was bad. I personally suggest a reflash.

Hello Everyone,
I am a noob on XDA, Please correct me if i have posted in the wrong forum. I bought a new nexus 7 16gb, for some reason when the battery is around 25-30% the tablet turns off itself. Its not shutdown its like pulling the battery of a phone thats on. The only way to start it is by connecting the charger.
Has anyone else experienced this issue?
I am on the stock rom NOT rooted
Thanks

Have you charged the device to 100% yet? I would do that, leave it charging for an hour after it shows 100% then use it till it dies. Rinse and repeat.

Yes I have charged it 100% multiple times, The only difference is i use a sammy charger that outputs 0.7 amps once in a while. I dont suspect the charging thing to do this.
Are you getting normal use out of a charge? How much screen time in one charge?

Like Highfigh suggested check how long you can run on a full charge. If you get some good hours in then maybe the battery % is not reporting back properly. A reset/restore could possible resolve that issue.
I believe I am getting pretty good charge. I will try once again, I was thinking this might be something with stock rom and hence I posted it online. Thanks every one for the help

exactly the same story here. in my case it's not so easy to turn it on. it would seem like the device is completely discharged, even if it just showed some 40 % battery left. i have to wait several hours to even try to bring it back to recovery mode. very long press does nothing. it happened couple of times already. very annoying with such seemingly superb tablet. i'm not living in the us of a, so no quick replacement for me
That's bad I can turn on mine in a few minutes. Again mine happens very rarely. I also get an excellent battery life. How long does yours go on a charge.
I would also like to know if there is any kind of Logs that we can look at. It's getting irritating, did you try rooting your device to see if that might fix the problem.

I got the same problem recently, I think it was after the last update on the firmware. Everytime the battery reach around 35% it just went off.
